Hill, of this State, late a Senator in the rebel Congress.. This person only a few weeks since.was pardoned by the President, and in common with almost every pardoned rebel, this is the use he makes of the 'clemency of the Government. You can readily see from the speechltself the character of the man, who is the representative of a large class, and the hiapeless- - mess of any satisfactory reconstruction of the gfr*--)'1'7441447,-*W4ile such men retain influence,. tE i'At en and willecontinue to be my course to permit and encourage the widest laiitifde of speech and of the press in this District consistent with the ISM and the public peace. I do not in clude among those who are permitted to exercise this latitude of speech the civil officers of the Pro iiideinal State Governments already prohibited by my orders from "using any influence whatever to deter or dissuade the people from taking an active part in reconstructing their State Governments under the Reconstruction acts." No such advan tage as the use of the machinery of the existing State Governments ought to be or will be given to the anti-reconstruction party. I consider it desirable that tl,.e Government and the people of the United States should thoroughly understand the feelings and purposes of the lead ing politicians of the South, to order that the country may . know by the .pesult of the coming ele.ctions,precasely the amount of Influence posses sed by these meu,nnd the kind and extent of legis lation required to counteract its baleful effects. In my opinion, no reconstruction can he satis factory or at all reliable as to future results, un lesa these men are permitted to discuss openly and according to their nature, the issues pre sented. If they still retain influence enough with the ,masses of the whites at the South to enable them by active efforts to defeat reconstruction under the late Acts of Congress, it is better that the country, 'Mould knowlit before than after the readmission. of the Southern States into the Union : It would not be difficult to find in the violent speeches of such men abundant cause for silencing them, but reconstruction accomplished in this manner would be no index of the public sentiment, and might and probably would result, after a year or two, in a relaplse of the people into' the same condition of bondage to these leaders that would lead necessarily to a repro duction of the same condition of things which demanded the passage of the Reconstruction Acts. It is better that the battle should be fought out. now and openly. If the people of these States have the common sense and the manhood to withstand the influence of the secession party and of the political leaders who have long controlled them, who have led them into their present con dition, and who seek to plunge them still deeper into misfortune, and if they prove able and willing to reconstruct their State Governments upon the only true principles of Government, in defiance of their leaders and against their active opposition, there will be good ground for hope that reconstruction will be satisfactory anti per 2 If they cannot do this, it may well be come a question whether reconstruction on any reasonable terms is possible so long as these un repentant and reactionary political leaders are suffered to remain in this country. - It is better that the country should know the truth on this subject now than run the risk of learning hereafter that an irreparable mistake ' has been made in the plan and execution of the Reconstruction Acts. I need scarcely repeat that reconstruction to be in the spirit of the acts of Congress and to be permanent must be the act of the people themselves after the fullest and freest discussion. Congress has done wisely in enabling them to make this fight, by disfranchising the leading, rebels and at least making it impossible for them to vote or hold Office. It would have been still better to enforce their permanent ab sence from the country. The personal influence thcyrnight bring to_bearif they were candidates na theselves is thus greatlyweakened and they. to discuss issues, and not appeal to personatreenog taw,. fwrrit. Yh. IPolan are thus left freer than they ever were before to choose their own candidates, and are forced to • think for themselves as they have net hitherto dOne. So far from being willing to see the disfran chised classes relieved from political disabilities, I consider these disfranchising clauses of the acts tO i be among, their wisest and best considered provisions. If they do no other good than to relieve the people from the Incubus of the old political leaders, they have accomplished in calculable service. It is not doubted that many worthy and now loyal men who could be safely trusted, are disfranchised by these clauses Of the military bills, but such a result was. Unavoidable, and can in their eases be easily remedied. It will no doubt be wise, at an early day, to relieve by name such of the disfranchiSed persons as have hitherto proved or shall prove by their conduct in the course of the next six months that they are worthy of it. Whilst it was unavoidable Dna some good men would be disfranchised by provisions of law nainst classes of persons, the remedy is easy. To - undertake the converse of this, that is, to give general amnesty and except individuals by name, would, certainly result in leaving large numbers enfranchised who out ht not to be. Such inmro per persons might decide the. coming . elections before their - Unfitness could be aseertained;' and even then it would be more than difficult to remedy the evil. I consider the method set forth . •in the reconstruction acts by tilt. the' Witer of the two, and I can hardly understand how • any man familiar with the Tacts can think other wise. These disfranchised persons hichide gen f rally the whole army of those who now hold o have hitherto held office. With few exceptions, all these person's were active rebels, and are bitterly opposed, to reconstruction under the nets of Congress; opposed in fact to any reconstruction whatever except such as would leave thorn in precisely the same political condition as if there had been no rebellion and no war. Even such a reconstruction as this they would only accept as a necessity of the situation, with the purpose to renew in Congress, and pe'rpetuate among them selves as nearly as possible the same conditions which existed before the war. With these reac tionists. dominant in the South, freedom of speech and of the press will not even exist iu name. The Union men, and even those who were secessionists, but have advocated reconstruction under the late ants of Congress, would find no peace and, no protection in these Stao.z.,. The lastlonclition of the freedmen would be worse than the first. I need only poiut to this speech of Mr. Hill, his numerous letters, the letters of Governor Perry Of South Carolina, of Herschel V. John son of Georgia, and ninny other men for suffi cient evidence that I have not overstated the CAM These men are the representatives of a large and powerful element bent on reaction, and they have been in the litOt of controlling the Southern Whites. By taking opposite sides of a political question they have in times past divided the Southern Whites on purely personalgrrounds,, and have thus created the Impression elsewhere that among the masses there was a political question decided instead of a purely personal one. 'United as they now are against recon atruction, it is wise to ascertain how far their Influence can prevail with the people. The disfranchising clauses of the acts of Con-' gress put it out of the power of these men to be candidates for office. One great element of their strength is thus destroyed, and the people, left to choose other leaders and vote for other candi dates, have really a freedom of action which they never had before and find themselves under a ne cessity for thinking which they have not hereto fore felt. Congress has given them this privilege, and imposed upon them this salutary necessity. It remains to be seen how they will use them. If they can vein the battle against. their former leaders after an open fight, all may be well in the future. if itot, then not. I do not at all agree in the opinion that there are not enough competent in this District to hold the civil offices, who are not disfranchised. I hive, I think, reason to know otherwise—but even admitting that it Is so, it is better to have an incompetent but loyal man in office, than to have a rebel of whatever ability. In fact, the greater the ability the greater the danger of, maladminis tration,. The questions at issue under these Acts of Con . - gresa are the most momentous ever presented to a people. The result for good or evil will affeet allparts'of the couatry with more or less force and will leave an Impression upon our hul tutiona which will long remain. It is easy, under existing circumstances to win the first victory and reconstruct these htates under the aeti of Congress. But this victory is only the beginning of the contest, rind unless it be a victory openly and fairly won, and very decisive 'in its results, it may prove not only fruitless, hut absolutely destructive. The problem is to perpetuate reconstructionJu the :epirit and on the principles which can alone assure tree govern ment. Should we effeetrecOnstructioneVen after silencing the open opposition of the old political leaders, we stand committed to admit the recon structed States into the Union. Once admitted into the Union, the power of Congress over them is rednced practically to the general power which that body has over all States in the Union. 'By admittingt hese Southern States after silen cing the old political leaders, and neutralizing for, the moment old political influences, Oongressland the people disarm themselves: The moment ad mission into the Union is accomplished the Mili tary power le suspended and with it all restric tions are removed. At once these old political leaders and the old politicalgand, personal influ ences will resume their activity-and we may find too late that such reconstruction as we have made is not only not what was needed and ex pected but what will simply result in a reproduc tion of the same condition of affairs which made reconstruction measures necessary at all. Freedom of speech and of the press, education, equality before the law, and in political rights and privilege's, are the essentials of any satisfac tory reconstruction in, the South. Without securing these we have secured , nothing. How , can we know that reconstruction will accom plish these results unless we know in adVance the strength and the power of those who oppose it? Reaction is certain unless the re— construction party can win the battle by decisive majorities over all the elements which oppose it, left to develop theinselves and apply their full force to the contest. If the reactionists thus left free can defeat such reconstruction as this, we then know what to do, what in fact we must do, if we desire to perpetuate free institutions. It is best to„know all - these things before re-admission into the Union is granted. It will be too late to learn Meth afterward. Now is the time and this is the opportunity to complete this work so that it will stand. Every dictate of wisdom and pa triotism demands this work at our hands. If hastily or partially done, reconstruction will drag with it a train of evils to this country which can never be remedied. It is not necessary to say that however we restrain the opposition party now, the moment reconstruction is accomplished this party will regain its activity, and we ought to know in advance whether it possesses the power to undo what we thought we had done. I do hot mean to intimate that it , would be pos sible to re-cAtablish slavery; perhaps it would not even be practicable to take from the freedmen the right of suffrage, though this latter is doubt ful. These politicians are wily and sagacious. They will make no laws which are not equal on their face to all men. It is in the execution of these laws which seem to bear equally on all, that wrong will be done, and a condition of 'things produced which bears no resemblance to free government except in Tintile. Social exclusion, withdrawal of business relations, open exhibitions of hostility, if- not indeed actual hostile acts, interruption of or interfer4ce with the freed men's and other schools maintained by charitable contributions from the -North; these will be the weapons used against Union men and the colored, race. Acts of wrong and violence will meet no sufficient redress if indeed any redress at all in the courts. These are acts which cannot be reached by the General Govertment, and yet which quietly and silently render justice impos sible and establish discrimination against classes or color odious and •unbearable. I say then again that unless reconstruction is accomplished after the fullest development of all the influences against it by decisive majorities we wilt simply have reproduced and perpetuated in the South what we sought to destroy. We ought to know in advance, if possible, whether the presence of the leaders of these incurable renctionists and their active influence in this country are com patible with the peace of the country, and the security of our institutions. • Another question ought to be and probably will be decided in the course of the coming can vass for and against a Con'vention. That quess *On is this: Have the sluggishness of mind and body and the tendency to qssail by violence we, right of opinion anti discuss, engendered • i,. baba* acquired during the eXiStenee• of slavery ankllie system of polities in the South, unfitted the peoplis for such self-government as is implied by free speech, free press and the fullest peaceable discussion of all public questions ? This Is a most important question, and one which, if answered iu the light of existing facts. must be answered unfavorably. Not only do the read - Riflery Anti-ReconStructionl4o 'use all the instrumentalities I have named except such as they are restrained from using by the military authorities, but- there is little cloubt that they would resort at once to the intimidation and vio lence which, lobg, practice has made a habit, if they dared to do so in the presence of the Mili tary forces of the United States. Candor compels me to say that this tendency to repress freedom of speech is not .confined to either party, but ' prevails, though to-a much lees extent, among the Reconstructionists, whether they have been always Union men, or have lately joined the • ranks of the Reconstruction party. It becomes the GovernmeQt of the United States to frown upon Erich measures by whatever party proposed, and no rebuke so salutary or so pregnant of good results can be administered as for the Go vernment to protect all parties In the exercise iif free speech. Results will show what we enp-I. expect in the future in establishing in the South _what are cardinal principles of our Government. Thti 7 Toregoing remarks refer ci:cLusively to the white race in this District. The condition and future of the colored people are .-far more hopeful and encouraging. The earnest and touching anxiety of the Freed people to learn, cannot but mike a prefoand impression upon the mind of any one who has had the opportunity to observe it. It may safely be said that the marvellous progress made in education and knowledge by these people. aided by the noble charitable contributions of Northern Societies and individnak finds no paral lel in the history of mankind. If con[inned (and if continued at all it nnist be by the same agencieand the masses of the White ui~otile exhibit the Faille, indisposition 0, be that they do 110 W. five years will have trans ferred/ intelligence, and education, so - far as the masses are concerned, to the Color.al people of this District.. The social and political results of such a change cannot fail to be important and to a great extent decisive , - •f the questions which we arc seeking to solve. it becomes us therefore to guard jealously against any reaction which may and will check this most desirable progress of the colored race. In this view also we should assure ourselves that the re construction we are attempting to set up in the South is of a character and possesses the vitality to encourage and maintain this progress and perpetuate its results. These, General, are briefly my views upon the condition of affairs in this District, and they fur nish the reasons why I tun pursuing the course in the administration of and office which I have indicated to you. It is not im probable that I may be mistaken and that reconstruction forced and hurried may. finally result In equal good. It seems to me, however, that we will incur a great risk by de parting from the course I have marked out, for myself; and if by carrying out other measures, we fail to accomplish ,ihe results we all have at heart, we will have entailed endless evil neon these _people and upon the country, and will have disarmed ourselves of the power to remedy I am confident that reconstruction will be sat- isfactorlly accomplished In this district, in s pite.. of the open and active opposition of the disloyal reactionists. I can safely say that Alabama will give not less than ten thousand majority of white votes for reconstruction—and I think it may be said with almost equal certainty that Georgia will give a white majority in the same direction. Not lees than three-fourths of the colored vote in each of these States will be,aast for reconstruc tion. The same remarks are substantially true of Florida, and if I have so earnestly invited your attention to the danger of opposite results it has only been to furnish the data necessary to meet the ease and to justify the course I have thought it ludicious to pursue. All the facts that can bear upon these questions I shall continue to report as they come to my knowledge. It is, however,my duty to state that in my judg ment the condition of atlitirs in the Southern States,even should reconstruction be satisfactorily accomplished, will of necessity. be a:reproduction In a more or less, modified 'degree, of what now exlstS in Tennessee, unle4s some .measures aro adopted to free the country of the turbulent and disloyal lenders of the reactionary party.

T 1 REMOYAT• OF SECRETARY STANTON--MERT IND ON SOLDIERS AND SADA)RS.-011 Saturday night a meeting of honorably discharged soldiers .and sailors was held at the Union League Howie, to express their disapproval of the removal of Hon. E. M. Stanton as Secretary Of War. General Joshua T. Owen was called upon to preside, and on taking the chair he thanked the assemblage for the expression of their confidence in selecting him to, preside over a meeting com posed of those who had risked their lives in de fence of the flag, or who had assisted in crushing out a most gigantic Eebellicin. The meeting , had been convened to afford an opportunity to the loyal men of Philadelphia to express their sentiments in respect to the suspension from office of Hon. Ed win M. Stanton, Secretary of War. Andrew john - ,Son at'this time instead of •carrying out the re construction measures as he is bound to do as a mere executive officer—a servant of the people— is throwing obstacled" in the way of reconstruc tion, and is clearly hostile to the law. So long as all the States that rebelled against the govern ment are out of the Union, they should be corn -pelted to remain out of it until they show repen tance for their deeds. They were substantially , out at the close of the war, and the situation 'of aflairs has not' been materially changed since then. Our government has shown an unprece dented magnanimity to those who rebelled against its authority, and in any other country the leaders would have forfeited their lives for opposing the government. of the country. The Rebels are this day still arrayed against the peo- • pie and the government why) treat them with this magnanimity, but they had better be careful how they act, for oh them will rest the responsibility, if they shut their eves and ears to what interests thems.elves. The suspension of the Hon. Secre tary of WnFby the President of the United States, without the comrnissiou of a crime or the naming of an offence, was a clear violation of the Tenure of Office bill, and a part of the plan by which the President hopes to interfere with the Reconstruc tion laws of Congress. The laws, he said, should be executed In good faith: Governments are es tablished for the good of the governed, not the governors, and power should be exercised with Judgment.: 'So long as this is done, the people will have confidence in, and respect for, those chosen to execute the laws. but not when they substitute their own views for the plain letter and spirit of the law, and totally disregard the ex pressed will of the law-makers. Secretary Stan ton had the confidence of the people, and the country owed him ,a debt of gratitude for his faithful'performance of his duties during the war.

General Collis then read the following pre amble and reso]utions, which were unanimously adopted : ' Whi'veas. We, the successful defenders of the Republic. feel it a duty we owe to ourselves, to the memory of our fallen comrades, anti to pos terity. to assemble together from time to time and express our views of the Government our services have rescued from traitors. And whereas, We believe a crisis 'MIS arrived when - through the treachery of a once patriotic public servant the results of our recent struggle for universal liberty and republican institutions are likely to be wrested from us unless we make manifest our continued and unswerving devotion to our country, and our hostility to the authors of the war and the sentiments which actuated them. Alai 'whereas.

T„hat while the President has Surrounded himself from day to day with advisers of doubt ful loyalty and men who have proved false to their antecedents, the veterans of the ,late war have never abandoned hope for the fliture while the heart and brain of Edwin M. Stanton, faith ful among the faithless, administered the duties of the War Office. 3. That in his suspension from office. in direct violation of a positive law enacted expressly to assure the retention of his eminent services, the President of the United States is eltgrgeable with a high crime and misdemeanor, lor which he should be held responsible. 4. That the proud record of Edwin M. Stanton needs no eulogy at our hands. Most heartily do we echo the sentiment contained in the just and generous letter of our honored chieftain, Ulysses S. Grant, and sincerely will we congratulate our selves if the General-in-chief be permitted to re main at the head of the Department until the ac tion of Congress shall necessitate the return of the proper incumbent. L. That we earnestly hope the President will yet abandon the idea of forcing upon the loyal masses of the North, a policy which the people and tlicir representatives have again and again reject ed; and that he will pause before interfering with Major-General Sheridan and the other depart mental commanders in the execution of the laws of Congress; for the people are preparing to re move all the "impediments" to the Reconstruc tion plan of Congress, and can confidently rely upon the assistance of the soldiers and sailors of the late war. Colonel Given and Lieutenant Lemuel Reeve next addressed.the meeting, denouncing in strong terms the-course of the President in suspend ing Secretary Stanton, and, at the conclusion of their remarlis; the meeting adjourned. EXPLOSION AND Loss OF LIFE A'V THE BILIIV MILO APSF,NA.—On Saturday afternoon- rt out four-o'clock an explosion occurred in the a if tit.l ridge-making room of the United States Ar .1 al, at Bridesburg, and James Carter was instantly killed, and Christian C. Zimmerman so badly in jured that he died in a short time. A man named Wesley Chinn was also severely injured. At .the time of the sad occurrence Mr. Carter was charging a cartridge with percussion powder, and, though the greatest care was taken, the powder ignited, and this set tire to the magazine, which contained a small quantity of the powder, causing the explosion..

Yesterday We made brief mention of the ease of a Woman who is at present confined in the lunatic asylum at Utica. Her name is Zell, and she is the with of James Zeh, a well to-do resident of the town of Berne, in this county. She. Was sent to the asylum about six weeks ago, at the solicitat,ion of her bus bunch and on the certificate of two country physicians, who testified before Judge Chile that she was a woman of unsound mind and not fit to be allowed to remain at large. The following morning she was brought to this city, and visited Judge elute in his office. He Vas astonished at finding her as rational . as those who had certified to her insanity. She protested against being Sent to gp the Asy lum, stating that her husband only desired to get rid of her for the purpose of becoming possessed of property which she holds in her own name. Notwithstanding her pleading and entreaties, she was forwarded to the Utica Asylum, where she still remains. A letter has been received here from Dr. Gray, who is in charge of the Asylum, setting forth that he has been unable to discover any evidence of insanity about Mrs. Zeh; that she is per-. fectly sane, and that he considefil'• it very strange she should be kept there by her friends. It may not be out-of place for us to give a few tsdditional facts in connection with the case of this unfortunate woman. She and her husband have not lived happily to gether for some time past. .She alleges. that she has been cruelly treated by him, and been obliged to suffer a great deal in conse quence of such treatment. Ile has frequently beaten her, and the marks of violence are still on her person. She says he was inti mate with another woman who lived within - View of - their residence. - - Whenever-he vis ited, this woman, both of Won would place themselves at the window,and indulge in (Went acts‘fbr the purpose of tormenting his wile. And this was not all. - Mrs. Zell had frequently been sent to the city by her husband !o make purchases. He would give her counterfeit money, as she believed, for the purpose of getting her into trouble. She al ways had the , bills examined, and, on dis covering them to be counterfeit, wouhi re turn them to her ,husband. On account of the cruel treatment received, she separated from her husband last fall, and came to this city with one of her childre-n. She remained here during the entire winter, supporting her -self and child by taking in' washing. She earned a sufficient amount to pay ten dollars per month for the support of her voungest child, which she bad left with a family in Berne: In May she was persuaded by friends to return and live with her husband. She finally, with great reluctance, consented to e:o so. She was permitted to remain there hit a short time before she was - pronounecel insane, and now-finds herself within the in closed walls of the State Lunatic Asylum. We gather the above facts from a reliable source, and the case should be thoroughly in vestigated. A STOEY OF A NEW YORK WOMAN.—In the A merican DepartMent at Paris, there is on exhibition some gold" embroiderywhich attracts universal admiration.

She is an elegant and accomplished lady, on whose fame not a breath of suspicion has rested. But deserted, and with no pro vision made for her maintenance, she resolved t o turn her accomplishments to a good account This ]ady called on Mine. Demorest and tohf her story—exhibited her skill, and found full employment and fair compensatiPn. For years she has earned a comfortable subsist ence, and is esteemed by all who know her. Kings and queens bend over her handiwork in Paris with admiration. By little and little her story has leaked out, and great interest is attached to it. With her needle and patient endurance she will make a name in the world. —New York Gazette. HOW NATURE PRESERVED A RECORD. - A St. Louis paper mentions an incident which occurred in the surveys of the Iron Mountain Road in the cypress swamps of Southeast Missouri. • The engineers, having orders to locate their surveys in connection with the United States land surveys, had occasion to 'search for the marks of records made years ago in the swamps. The land surveyors had marked the results of their work by cutting into the)body of a tree, leveling off a smooth surface of the trunk, and engrossing their records on the tablets thus prepared. The engineers found the trees of the old survey, and recognized the scars of former cuttings,' but to reach the records were compelled to cut into the trees again. New wood had grown up over the old record,.- completely hiding and protecting it. But, after cutting into the body down to the original tablet, they found the surveyor's record as plain and distinct as when' first made. Lyric Feuds. The last number of the Weatraimiter view has a cleverly-written article entitled " Lyric Feuds." The title does not wholly mislead as to the nature of the article, for it does describe some of the more memorable feuds between rival schools of music main of of the writer, however, is appa rent enough, and that is to exalt Wagner and the school of which he is the great apostle. Leaving out of view the conclusions at which: he arrives, the article is one in which thought ful Students of music can find much that is founded on a Arm philosophy of the art, and admirably expressed, Until quite modern times music was re garded ''as nothing better' or nobler than a cherished instrument of the World's pleasures, the dear toy of her idle hours, by whom no' Worthy Work was possible of accomplish ment, in whom no serious intent existed.". As a consequence of this low conception of the art.. beauty of melodic form was what was mainly striven for, and success was measured by the pleasure afforded to uncultured listen: ers. Even men of such high intellectual standing as Dr. Brown and Dr. athnson, rep resenting the'English educated classes of their day, deliberately spoke of music as only a "pleasure of sense." To Handel belongs the honor of having first taught England and Europe something of the real mission of what Luther called "the divinest of the arts," and the fierce struggle he had with the imitative school of music was the most notable of the "lyric feuds" contested on English soil. Visiting England in 1710, he began to inquire into the condition of music in that country, par- , ticularly the lyric drama. He found that the mass of the people were wretchedly deficient, even in the knowledge of the simpler airs common in European countries. The well educated and the aristocratic classes were carried away with a style of operatic music which would not be tolerated in any civilized country, and were confirmed in their tastes by Addison, who was then the autocrat' of public opinion on this, as on literary subjects, but whose knowledge of music was ex- Iremely limited. Handel had no sooner come „before the English public as an operatic composer than all the adherents of the existing vicious school of music began to raise a storm of opposition, of which the composer Bononeini and Addison were the leaders. On the Italian' side were a large number of the nobility—the Dukes of Newcastle, Queensberry and Richmond, the Duchess of Marlborough, Lord Bathurst and other persons of eminence.. Handel iVILf stoutly sustained by the Duke of Chandos and Lord Burlington, Dr. Arbuthnot, • the filmouS physician, Vanburgh, the architect dramatist, anti other notable men. Addison and Steele were his most remorseless enemies, while Ilogailh imPartially caricatured both the German and Italian musicians. ' AlthOugh both Handel and Bononcini ac cepted many of the past traditions anti con temporary usages of music, Handel alone developed the first beginnings of a school of music which can properly he called the in tellectual, as opposed to the merely sensa tional. lie, too, first began to make nse of the orchestra to express definite conceptions of the drama, instead of using it as. a mere accompaniment to the singing. After a long and arduous contest, in which all the cults wiled classes of England took more or less share, he finally Won a decisive and last, ing victory, from the results of which Eng land has never gone back. • The next great feud was between Gluck and Picini, and was of similar charaCter. Picini held about the same position in the musical world of Paris as Bononcini did in London, and represented the same school. Ghick was the legitimate successor of Han del, but began where his predeeessor left oflr and carried the musical revolution begun by the latter to a higher point. Gliick came to Parisin 1772, duly accredited 9 by the French embassy at Vienna to the directors of the opera at that city. Ile had shrewdly hinted that the Bolognese Opera House bad netted nine hundred thousand livres from his works, and thus overcame the opposition to the foreign' composer. One powerful friend be found in-Marte Antoinette, who had been•his pupil on the harpsichord in Vienna. power of his royal, patron was neelel at the outset, for the directorate of the (Tor I were about to prohibit the performanee of his Dew work, when he appealed to . the Queen and got a positive order. \Viten it was first produced there was a tnintilt%t , 'F:3 ntemingling of applause and scornfzd ex pressions. On Gliick's side were the Queen and her Personal party; on that of the. opposti ei nearly all of the literary men and l'uttsie:ans.' But one journal gave a verdict in favor of !•:_. - work. This opera— [ph crt. Mrtr: =stitch fait in a new. vein .of composlt'..on. The operpire, instead of cl,)witsting of a'me 1- ley of airs of the Opera, foreshadowed action of the drama, while the opera it,>e7f "Atewed a dispQsition to make. of something more than sensuous amusement.' The arrival of Picini in Paris gave new. life to the controversy growing out of tie; production of this opera, and he set to work to bring out operas, in French. "For a while Paris was divided upon the merits of the two , composers and the truthor falsity, of the prin ciples thr which each contended. A. perfect hurricane .of operatic performances super vened." "From 1777 to 1782 Paris presented a universal scene of fanatic extravagance, oc casioned by this gigantic musical feud." Fi nally, the composer was obliged to visit his royal patron.by stealth, for fear that he would be suspected .of Austrian sympathies. At last Gltlck triumphed, and the fundamental doc trines of imaginative musical art were estab lished. So far as relates to these two musical feuds; the Westminider article is interesting and instructive. When, however, the writer un dertakes to assert that as Glilek was to. Handel, in the history of musical progress, so is Wagner to GlUck, assent will be refused by man . Tan MISMURI SILVER 31,[1NES. — Of the re ported silver mine in Cedar county, Mis souri, the Southwest Tribune of the 2d instant says: "We have been slow to believe in the actual existence of large quantities of silver in our county, but seeing it and hand ling it has at length overcome all doubts, and we are now thoroughly satisfied. We have , seen a large amount of the ore, and our opinion, verified by that of those more ex perienced than Ourself, is that it will yield about twenty per cent. of silver. Nor are the mines confined to a small territory; already have excellent indications been found through a distance of nearly twenty miles. A TREMENDOUS STORM.—The journals of Champagne, France, give accounts •of a vio lent storm which broke over that district 're cently. The church of the Bar-sur-Aube was seriously damaged, 'and all the stained glass. windows destroyed, the loss amounting to 50,000 f.; at Arcis many trees were torn up by the roots, and a part of the-roof of the prison carried away; the fields and gardens of the neighborhood of Troyes were greatly devas tated; a house and outbuildings at St. 'Parma aux-Tertres, and a stack of corn at Culoison, were - struck by lightning and completely con: sumed. 113 - EW PECANS.-10 BARRELS NEW CROP TEXAS 11 Pecans landing, ex-steamehp Star of the Duke, audi for sale by J.
